Merle Haggard
Grandma’s Homemade Christmas Card
[Verse 1]
The family once received a homemade Christmas card
And everyone was thrilled to read the verse inside
Because every line was printed where the print should be
And Grandma's name was neatly signed with pride
[Verse 2]
It simply read, "my prayers and thoughts are with you
And all my Christmas wishes are for real
I'm just good enough at poetry to make it rhyme
And also to let you know the way I feel"
[Verse 3]
Grandma's homemade Christmas card from long ago
Hangs proudly in the treetop with the tinsel snow
It's the only Christmas card that we keep from year to year
Yep, Grandma's homemade Christmas is always here
